- This dynamic young couple are used to working hard and bringing their dreams to life, one of those dreams was to construct their own tiny house on wheels. Eve and Chris decided to make the move to Raglan, New Zealand for a better quality of life, but the rental market didn’t make that easy - so the couple decided to get creative and put their skills to the test to build a tiny home.

Chris has a furniture making business and is no stranger to tools and timber, which is evident from the homes clever design and great finishes. The couple spent a lot of time searching for cheap materials for the home which helped to greatly reduce the cost of the build and make the tiny house truly an affordable option.

Eve is very used to big projects and to dedicating herself to a task. Representing New Zealand as an Olympic Athlete in rowing, she fell into depression after the olympics and used the tiny house as a project to set her mind to accomplishing a goal and helping to move into a more positive space.
Together, this couple have created a wonderful home. Enjoy the full tour of this very special tiny house. To find out more about their projects, visit their website: / raglan-tiny-home-19120...

I love the cat just lounged on the bed like nobody's business. And this Tiny home is minimalist to the core. Simple and clean and functional. Good job.
I love that this project was Eve's remedy for depression. So glad she shared that. Great vids. Thanks so much!
Thanks Rebecca!
I agree its so awesome she found relief in the home they built
Same thoughts Rebecca.
A beautiful share for those of us also haunted by ‘the black dog’.
Having a place to be is an essential, ain't it? No matter how "big", just knowing there is one ...
I agree 😇😇😇😇
I love how open Eve was about her depression. I wish I could be like that too. And what an awesome way to help with her depression. Beautiful 💜
To be honest she still sounds a little down.
Matt Schatz yeah I know from my own experience that it’s not „really over“ even when you already feel a whole lot better...it’s gonna be like an aching joint although everything else is okay again.
@@missrobinhoodie yeah and you can hear it in her voice a little. But eventually we all have to stop sulking and just move on. Keeping busy is pretty good and talking about it to strangers on youtube is good too lol.
@@mattschatz4864 perhaps you mean well, but depression is not just sulking and dealing with depression is not as simple as just moving on. Training for the Olympics and working on her home is beneficial for her but there's no miracle cure for depression.
@@ituesday24 totally agree with you.
I hope you all enjoy this weeks video! Lots of sounds of New Zealand summer in this one. Those cicadas sure can sing! We really loved meeting Eve and Chris - this couple are doing some wonderful things in the world and it was absolutely our pleasure to meet them and tour their wonderful tiny home on wheels. Thanks to all of you for watching and supporting our channel!
love this layout....one of the best so far.
Keep doing great content Bryce! Love everything you put out. 😘
Once more you have found a beautifully designed and realised TH and here in NZ. The rich wood elements, offset with a pale neutral palette and flooded with natural light from the huge windows informs the clean, minimalist aesthetic and belies the craftsmanship underscoring this build. It is so nice to see another NZ example at the cutting edge of Tiny House liveability. We are lucky our climate is conducive to wonderful indoor/outdoor living for most of the year and this build really maximises the space and delicious touches that speak to the thought and care that went into this build is exemplified by the wonderful wooden drying rack on the deck that looks to cleverly winch away above the kitchen window. Kudos to the young couple, their home is lovely.

Hi Bryce! I love your videos! They are so uplifting. You are so gracious in your approach to your work and your guests
Wow, I love the clean lines, minimalism, and function, all without losing warmth, Chris. I am glad the project helped with your depression Eve and best of luck (if you can call it that) for your next rowing competition.
Lim Lop 😇😇😇
Good luck Eve at next year Olympics. Such a lovely home.
Tiare K 😇😇😇
Yes, I agree. It's a lovely home.
Jinxed it...
Bryce! A house ain't finished untill you came along blessing it and baptising it with all your positivity... 😉😃💪🏻🙏🏻
in a name...OF JESUS...I BAPTIS THIS TINY HOME....LOL...:)
drawers under couch! so much better than having to flip up cushions and top loading. This is the way to go
shure! but it means more work (make drawers), more weight, and you need space to open them.
They pulled those top loading “drawers” out to be used as stools, a bench, and support for the sofa bed extension. Regular side loading drawers would eliminate all that versatility.
"I want to build a tiny house one day"
Couple of months is all it took to go from the "one day" to "let's do it now" :D
Nice one! I wish you all the best.
Well do it...it would be amazing.
HAVE DONE YET?.......:)
I love the simplicity of the house. And the couple seems so down to earth and so at ease, best of luck to them. Another beautiful tiny house, thank you Bryce!
This NZ series is just amazing! When I think we have seen the best tiny house there comes an even better one. New Zealanders Rule
What I hear, in NZ the shortage of affordable living spaces throughout and general house prices reach levels otherwise seen maybe in San Francisco or central London only. So necessity being the mother of inventions is supposed to show - as it does, recurrently, in Bryce's NZ videos.
Hello Renata
Hello Ranata how are you doing!!
I love how much skill people are blessed with to create such beautiful homes.
more than the homes I love that you show these loving couples and touching stories behind the homes.
The lofted bed without any other floor space does keep the tiny house feeling open, airy, and uncluttered. The light tones and abundant views showcase their lovely location, "bring the outside in." Even though Chris is the furniture maker, it's great that Eve got a lot of value out of the build process as well. I'm glad Eve and Chris are there for each other, each with their separate passions but also entirely together as a couple. I hope she finds stability and centered-ness in her space.
In all honesty, watching this channel has made me really think about my space and my possessions more. I think i could divest of some items more easily now, though my husband and little guy have no reason to move or give away their stuff. *grin* All in good time, for some of us.
Completely agree, it's made me rethink a lot of stuff, as well. My dream has always been to own and live in a big old traditional Swedish farmhouse (a dream that, thanks to very fortunate circumstances is about to come true for me), with all its different unique spaces to decorate. And being so interested in interior design and style, I I wouldn't even mind having loads of rooms that I could decorate nicely, even though they would be used seldom (my house has just enough, though). Yet, since I'm pretty adaptable and I make use of what little or much space I have (same with money...), I am totally convinced that I would thrive in a well thought trough tiny apartment, house or house on wheels. I'm definitely still loving my soon to be house, but I've learned to try and live more minimalist and to rethink my priorities. This is something I've also learned a lot from Audrey Coyne here on youtube (clothing, finding your own style and planning your wardrobe). I'm so glad I've come across these channels!
Hello Naomi
I keep wondering how people change the bedding on the loft beds that are built flush to one side and this one did not appear to have much room at the end of the bed either! Great job building your home, Chris and Eve! And those outside tables! They are beyond beautiful.
Another beautiful home and video. Thanks for inspiration! I also want to thank Eve for her frank discussion about depression. I jog every day to keep depression at bay and am encouraged by her example.
I thought the last tiny house was fabulous but this one's as good if not better. I really liked their homemade clothes airer seen at 11.24 and that dining table was really smart too. The white walls and big windows certainly create a feeling of space.
Thanks for pointing out the clothes dryer, I would never have noticed it. What a clever detail.
Love the simplicity of this one, and OMG 6:15

Thanks Bryce for a very enjoyable tour of Eve and Chris' home. They're a beautiful couple that have created a really nice, well designed and comfortable home for themselves. All the creature comforts are attended to. My hat is off to them - they've done a really great job. Thank you Bryce AGAIN for another enjoyable video. Take care my friend. ;)
Thank-you Charles! I hope you're well mate. All the best!
Hello Charles, it's on my heart to tell you that Jesus loves you very very much. He has a place for you in heaven one day. Do you know him?
I need a thtoo
@@laurieflorio5890 Laurie , how are you? I want to let you know that Jesus died for you on the cross and he loves you very much. He loves you beyond measure. Do you want to know him?
Its so open and airy. Beautiful! I keep saying there can't be better but it gets better
Thanks so much Mercy! So glad you like the video.
I love all of them. Here in Kenya land is super expensive in the big cities and also in the agricultural productive sort of safe areas so for us young ppl it is quickly becoming unachievable to buy a ready made apartment or house or even to rent. But we can get affordable land in what we call our ancestral lands and these tiny homes are such an inspiration. For us though it has to be on foundation but still loads of ideas from the videos I never miss an upload. Its currently 1:51am Saturday morning waiting for this!
I agree. There’s always a new “favorite” I see.
Haha Yeah i must agree with you :)
Nice to find a fellow Kenyan interested in Tiny Houses
So pretty, I watched it twice. (Cannot buhLEEVE how many beautiful homes you find to show us. Gives me great hope for my own future and everyone else's.)
rumigirl 😇😇😇
Saturday morning, a cup of coffee, and your video just make my day ☕
Alice Kim That’s what I‘m doing right now 7 hours later here in Germany...😊☕️
My Sunday morning breakfast viewing. 😁
What a coincidence, It is a Saturday morning right now when I am watching and reading your comment :)
COOK DELICIOUS MEAL WITH EVERYTHING GROW IN THE BACKYARD.....:)
I really like the sleek yet unpretentious style with all the hidden details, table for ten, fridge in cabinet, guest bed from storage cubes that can be added tables/stools used all around house and deck, double doors and serving window for entertaining/food and drink flow and especially the tiny wood heater up high.
There was something so touching about the couple though, so revealing and pure how you can see their strengths and vulnerability at the same time, each one pouring into the other maintaining the glass of their union seemingly more than half full at all times. Even Bryce seemed to notice, allowing the wine to breathe and dance before us joining in the celebration of a relationship and home beheld.
Maybe I'm just romanticizing, or waxing poetic of something but this THL seems to be the complete package and real deal, how natural and in harmony the important things can be. Best Wishes to All !!!
An actual tiny house! This is simplicity at it's finest. Love the work on the kitchen, beautiful craftsmanship.
"Keeping life simple" that's what I would call this tiny house. Very nice!
Hello Rosie how are you doing!!
Add mosquito nets on the patio + a proper folding Sofa from IKEA and we got a very nice apartment.
Without the garden it would be not the same. Like it !
Beautiful soul, Eve, Thank you for sharing. Alot of us are depressed ❤🍁
They're such a cute couple! And that photo with rainbow and work in progress is stunning. I think they made the most delicious looking food from all episodes.
Hello Evelyn
I love the laid back vibe of this house, it feels like a true beach relaxation cottage! I would feel relaxed just hanging out near it, beautiful, wonderful job. I almost don’t think I could ever get any work done in it because I would feel so relaxed. ;)
I love the wood tones in this tiny home. Makes everything look so neat and beautiful ♥️
I LOVE this home. I keep coming back- this is probably the sixth time I've watched it. It has everything- a spacious kitchen, washer, comfortable shower, permanent bed, and light and airy feeling.
Precious people and home. Thanks for being open and genuine.
Sweet home! The love here is evident. Eve, you are so gracious with a beautiful spirit. Wishing you all the best.
Love how the monochromatic white cupboards house and hide the appliances. The bed loft seems more like an airy piece of furniture than a light blocking full on loft. Such a beautiful story of how building a home with friends helped Eves depression . It is so important for us to have a purpose and live in community.
Holy wow another stunning tiny home.
It's gorgeous! I really like the design of their couch functionality- from storage to bed to bench seating for the dining table.
Beyond just design, exploring people’s philosophies and sources of nourishing fulfillment is what truly makes this channel special
Every time a new video comes up, I would go 'this is it..that's my tiny house!' Thanks Bryce for sharing this powerful movement. I'm excited that one day, I'll be able to build mine.
Carla Dizon 😇😇😇
Simplicity is a beautiful thing. Thanks for the find, Bryce.
Their kitty sleeping on the bed! Too precious 😍
Can we just appreciate the fact that this channel is all inclusive?
I love the lightness of this house! Beautifully done. I’m sure Chris made that Folding table- It’s exactly what I’m looking for!
Hello Lisa how are you doing!’
It's not just a "normal shower" when you have the coolest wooden floor and a view on the hills...
This one has been my favourite so far. I mean, the simplicity and the time put to building it just touched me to the core 💓
Not to forget the warmth of the couple.. Such sweetness😍
I love the way that she implements going through depression and how the tiny house has helped her amazing.....
Thank you for sharing
Thank you Bryce... The house is.lovely ...so simple..and it has everything they need ... Very nice and congratulations to Chris and Eve
Thanks Clark! Glad you like it.
What a lovely couple. Chris & Eve are awesome. Depression is an insidious disease. Eve, please be kind to yourself & know you are loved. Reach out & get the support you need. You are not alone remember that. Be well both of you.🎶💞🌻🌞!!!
9:27 KITTY!!! They should've talked about the kitty :(
Yes this kitty is living the life 😹
What a lovely couple!! Eve speaking up about her depression added so much to this video. Spectacular home. Congratulations!!
Darlene
An amazing home for an amazing couple :) Cheers Bryce, truly inspirational these shares ~ giving us all an affordable, functional and personalised vision to aspire to. Blessings always.
Linette Low agree
I want this sooo badly even if I have to move to another state.
The cat really looks like it's living the great life lol.
Can't wait to realize this dream 😊
CEDL4072 😇😇😇
Also was going to mention the cat. He / she looked so chilled out lol
ME TOO....:)
This house is really well made! It has everything needed in a tiny space 😊 Well done! And of course thank you Bryce for your great interviewing and wonderful personality!
Can't say enough hom much respect i have for people like them, doing it all by themselves it must feel so awesome when you're finished.
Much fun and love in your home guys!
THAT'S IMPRESSIVE...TINY HOUSE for only $32,000.....NO ONE CAN BEAT THAT...:)....I WISH ..I COULD BUILD A TINY HOUSE LIKE THAT.....SIMPLICITY....LIVE ABUNDANTLY BY APPRECIATING LITTLE THINGS in LIFE!!!!
Special couple. Eve is a bright light. They built a very cool tiny house.
Huge windows, lots of light and cats. These are great people. Lots of good ideas on minimal space.
An Olympic athlete and a carpenter is real true love if ever I have seen it. It is so great to see an example of true love and how they can over come the hard times. Reminds me of the S/O and I. Just goes to show that love is what makes your life work, not what you have. I hope they have many children as this is the kind of people that would make amazing and wonderful parents. My best wished to them!
I apprecite how these people are down to Earth and honest. The house is lovely and it seems like their happy place.
This is a teeny tiny home! But when you're that outdoorsy, you don't need a bunch of house. Super cute.
Eve, your so precious, I pray for both you and Chris have a life filled with joy. Enjoy life, it's so short. And Eve, keep your sweet giggle, that is so comforting. I could tell you are the world to Chris. Joy♡
Love the simplicity of this home, it is not only beautiful but very functional. Kudos to Eve battling her depression during the build of her home and coming out a winner!
This is my favorite tiny house! Beautiful, beautiful carpentry and it looks so open and fresh and full of light. The loft is my dream bedroom and the kitchen is my dream kitchen. And the outside complements it perfectly.
Awwww! That cat on the bed
This tiny does really feel like a holiday home. How amazing it must feel to go on a holiday every weekend after a hard week of training. And i love how the appliances are part of the cabinetry and that the couch serves 3 functions!! Everything looks so streamline but still very functional. Beautiful craftsmanship.
But is it comfortable? I've seen similar before, they look high & deep, no arms
What a great lifestyle.. Not much upkeep meaning more time for doing what you love to do.
God created earth beautiful. Human beings are adding color to it. Lovely tiny house.
Really impressed by Chris' skills and determination. Beautiful house with a great outdoors space. Love it.
Love all their determination and hard work. They kept going toward their goal and now have a happy home that takes care of all their needs.
This is one of my favorite homes of all! I love how all of the tiny homes have such a different feel and personality. This one is really lovely. I love the windows and openess, the clean lines, beautiful wood and the porch.
This is one of my absolute favorite tiny homes. So open! And Eve's story about her depression was really heartwarming. I wish them the very best!!
I have watched almost all the videos in this channel, probably the simple, cheap and best design especially with the loft where you can still sit upright on the bed, it's really a good one Bryce
Cute little home. A bit too little for me. But its obvious that it works for them. Also great that the building of it was a remedy for depression for her. They seem like a lovely couple. It gladens my heart to see couples like them. Lovely home indeed.
Fantastic home and lovely couple, and how wonderful Eve shared about her depression. Being so open about it helps so many other people.
I regularly watch this video, especially when I'm feeling down. It perks me up.
The deck space is so huuuuuuuge that it's the best area to enjoy the view of the property. The large sofa is a perfect place to relax and still connect with nature. Thanks to the wide door opening. The cabinetry is so neat. Everything is tucked in its own space. Perfect house for a minimalist 😘
Lovely couple and lovely home! Thanks, Eve, for being so candid about your depression. I'm glad you found relief in building your home with Chris.
I love the kitchen and sofa, clean lines, functional AND so beautiful!!
Hello Graciela
Hello Graciela how are you doing!!
Thank you to Eve for sharing her issue with depression and how she is able to face it by using the house for her goal. The goal turned into a beautiful home! I hope you and Chris have many happy years in your home. Thanks for sharing, Bryce!
I love, love, love how their kitchen window offers them the convenience to serve food!
Jesus,... This has got to be the tiniest tiny house!! Amazing!!! Love how everything is hidden away and the cabinetry is uniform.
I wish I could live in this beautiful home with such scenic beauty..Thanks Mr. Langston for bringing this to us..😍
Yeah! I love to see this place.....this place is soo cozy and comfortable ....great job Bryce👍
Sapna Yadav i agree 😇

Chris smile more as you've done an amazing job, I love your work be proud. My God that dinner could sell for at least £200/£300.😀😍😍😍😍👍🤜💖💖💖
Hello Eve and Chris! Your home is really well done! I especially like the hiding of things under the stairs! beautiful job! 😁
Bryce and Rasa, I hope all is well in your world? Have fun at your upcoming tiny house building workshop tomorrow!
I'm just getting things settled for my trip to Scotland in less than two months away, other than that, just enjoying the cold wet Oregon winter! 😅
🖤🦇
Thanks! Life is super hectic at the moment, but we are keeping our heads above water and really enjoying Australia. Our workshop sold out and I'm really looking forward to it!
@@livingbig one thing I've learned about you, is that no matter how hectic, you always manage to pull it off... I wish I could be there, but I'll keep an eye out for any random Live Streams you often do!
Keep your head up, mind focused on the good, you've got this! Both of you! 🤗
🖤🦇
ImDBatty1 😇😇😇
Beautiful exterior and a compact very well designed interior with no wasted space and good storage!👍🏻😄🐾🌈☮️🇨🇦
Really love the minimalistic simple design of this house and just how open everything is.
I've been watching your videos for years and I've always wanted to tweak something on the design. I think this is the first time where everything made sense; the design is simple, streamlined, functional, and beautiful.
Thank you Bryce and Rasa for bringing so many amazing videos and ideas into my life!
Bryce and Rasa, your videos give me my 10 minutes escape from all that is going on in my life and in my country right now. I wait for your videos.. and when I play them I want time to pass slower. Your videos help me imagine what another world could be like. Thank you for this. Thank you 🌸
Is a great project without unnecessary things. Tiny tiny house. But living big big great!! 😄
yosoyalbertico 😇😇😇
Gorgeous! Clean and elegant! Great work! Beautiful people! 💚
Thanks! Glad you like the home and the tour. :)
Best channel 🏆
The bathroom is perfect! Great size. Doesn’t take 1/3 of the space. Way to go.
Awww, the kitty! ♥
So moved by their story and what a great house. Reading all the lovely comments Im thinking - what great people in this community. ❤
Like those floors. Their pull out couch looks more functional and easy to use than others I’ve seen.
Excellent use of space! Definitely personifies, "Living Big in a Tiny House"! BEAUTIFUL hand-built home!
Thanks for sharing this with us. 💎🙏😇💫🌱🌿🌻🐝🍓🌳🌎💖🙌🙌🙌😺
Tiny houses always seem to have so much storage in the most incredible place. Well designed
My absolute favorite! I really love how the minimalistic design sublimate some very subtle details, like the shape of the stairs or the mezzanine. God, the mezzanine is gorgeous... And, Eve and Chris are incredible people! Wish them the best
An amazing tiny house,and such a beautiful couple,and the amazing beautiful kind smile she have🤞🤞🤞🤞
Wow. This may be one of my favourite tiny homes I have ever seen. It was just the right amount of simple, open, bespoke, utilitarian, beauty that feels right. This kind of design and thrift reawakens my desire to one day go tiny. Thanks for sharing Bryce!
Love this one. Lovely home and couple. Congrats.
To Eve, good luck with rowing and with your depression. It can be a real monster to deal with. Hang in there and keep fighting.
First and foremost...New Zealand is such a stunning country!!! I mean, it’s absolutely gorgeous!
Love their tiny home and great views too!
What a great design and a finished home. So great to see couples make a life for their self that allows them to follow their dreams.
